This pie is a classic for a reason. It's easy to make, it's delicious, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love the combination of pineapple and cream cheese. It's the perfect balance of sweet and tangy.

I made this pie for my husband's birthday, and he loved it! The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I would definitely make this pie again.

I've tried many pineapple cream pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The filling is creamy and tangy, and the crust is flaky and buttery. I love that this recipe uses fresh pineapple instead of canned. It makes all the difference.

This pie is a bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth the effort. The filling is rich and creamy, and the crust is flaky and buttery. I recommend serving this pie with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

I wasn't sure how I felt about pineapple in a pie, but I'm so glad I gave this recipe a try. The pineapple adds a lovely sweetness and tanginess that pairs perfectly with the cream cheese filling. I'll definitely be making this again.
